OK, it's booked. I am going to try this again. Hopefully no torn ligaments in my knee (2015), 3 broken vertebra (2016), or a busted rib (2017 Canada).
9 days in Colorado - 3 in South Fork, 4 near Cimarron/Ridgway, and the final two visiting Peter in Lake City. Some of the waters we are going to hit are South Fork Rio Grande, Pass Creek, Upper Rio Grande, Lake Fork Gunnison, Big Blue Creek, Henson Creek, The Forks of the Cimarron and Big Cimarron, Uncompahgre, San Miguel, and maybe Cebolla Creek. All 9 nights in cabins in clean air! At least 7 mountain passes will be traversed. Magick and my wife along for the scenery and some fishing. Gonna be hard to work the next few weeks......

Jeff, Good luck. Make sure magick is outfitted St. Benard style with an emergency med pack. Hope no injuries for you or family this trip.

Some may laugh at that, but I have outfitted him with a small fanny pack before.... water, advil, a bandage, and a washcloth.... and some treats.

Yeah..."some treats". They call them "edibles" in those newfangled specialty shops up there. Oh, you'll be laughing alright for no particular reason making people wonder what's so funny. And when you're through with fishing you'll swing right into Black Rock City on the Playa. some people have all the fun.

I tried the 'cake' last year after I got hurt. It didn't help. If it helps me catch trout, gimme some!

So that's the reason someone doesn't have good balance and keeps getting hurt when he visits

They do have “backpack” harnesses for dogs that I’m considering getting for my mini ausie once he’s ready

new to the "forum family" here, but I got to ask Jeff, how did you get banged up? I recently had to quit racing (literally doctor's orders) and thus I took up fly fishing. Were you mtn bike racing? Sounds plausible.

Jeff's gone fishing in Colorado for a few days now. I wonder what Emergency Rooms he's been visiting and which ones offered the best administrative and medical services. I hope he posts great reviews of them, photos and all.
